From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Why? Win+C launches Copilot already, if you want to use it. It's simple enough currently, why change it? This will just make everything worse.
Why? Investment hype
Bingo
Awesome Keyboard with AI Support *
* On supported Operating Systems **
** With separate subscription.
I can't wait to no longer find a keyboard without this key.
Welcome to the custom mechanical keyboard scene.
You can always use those keyboards from the 2000's
I'm pretty sure you'll be able to find keyboards with a different icon that the ugly copilot, and then you can map it to whatever you want.
because most people are unaware of keybindings and when they inevitable tap on the new dedicated key they'll probably be shown a subscription screen for Copilot Premium or whatever they call it.
IMO it's a very disgusting and intrusive way of fishing subscriptions to the AI thing they've invested so much money on.
Like the shitty bixby button on phones.
In the five years of owning this phone, I have never once pressed that button on purpose. I press it on accident at least once a week.
5 years... do you have the S9? cause im exactly the same, never intentionally used it. ever.
I have the s10+ and it's actually useful, as you can remap the double click on that button to open any app you like. But yeah single click, never happened intentionally.
EDIT: F yeah, I just checked the settings and you can decide if you want bixby activation on single or double-click. Now I've set bixby to double click and on single-click it opens my password manager. If you don't select anything, it will do nothing on a single click.
The setting is under "Advanced Features" -> "Bixby Key" for me.
This requires logging in to bixby for me.
lol yep, S9.
Using it til it dies. Love this phone.
